                               BILL GRAY

  Mr. BOREN. Mr. President, I wish to offer my sincere sympathy to my 
colleague from Vermont on the loss of his dear friend and very talented 
and great citizen of our country. I am glad I was on the floor to hear 
his remarks because I think often, as we debate about abstract issues 
of policy, as we seek to serve here and make life better for large 
groups of our citizens, that sometimes in the rush of business we 
forget how much those individual relationships, personal friendships, 
family relationships mean to us. We forget that our lives, to be whole 
and complete, must be involved not only in the service of mankind and 
womankind collectively, but also in the service and relationship to 
individuals, one at a time, and especially to those who are closest to 
us.
